Bermuda 1943 is captioned with photo.

I'm always appreciative of period images to study from, hopefully this helps you military bike guys.

Lots of bright work, bling bling.

Very interesting photo. I'm wondering if this is really a historic picture or a reenactment photo. The color of the tents look like British Bell tents and with US GI's living in them. Perhaps this is a colorized photo and not an original Kodachrome pic? It would be interesting to do some further research into this photo.

Maybe a still from a film?
Dooood....

These are period photos, 129 total, all in color. I found them on Getty searching editorial images relating to the war.

Bermuda is shared with the Brits, the tents make sense to me, very likely set up for a liberty call.

Bling!
